** Description changed: Binary package hint: udev If I upgrade udev to 137-1 (jaunty) and several other packages which depend on that version, and I can no longer launch a terminal in GNOME. The error reads "Could not create secondary process" or so and the problem seems to be with /dev/pts devices which cannot be accessed. - Note (2009-04-25): Two reasons for this have been found: - 1. The order in /etc/rcS.d is messed up. Fix: - a. $ ls /etc/rcS.d | grep mountdevsubfs.sh - Note the number next to the "S" in that filename. - b. $ sudo mv /etc/rcS.d/S_mountdevsubfs.sh /etc/rcS.d/S11mountdevsubfs.sh - where _ is the number in the old filename - 2. Or, you modified /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh (maybe to get VirtualBox to work; that workaround is no longer needed) and dpkg refuses to update it. Fix: - $ sudo cp /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh.dpkg-dist /etc/init.d/mountdevsubfs.sh + Note (2009-04-25): Two reasons for this have been found: + 1. The order in /etc/rcS.d is messed up (this bug).
